This was definitely a gem that we found! The prices are pretty reasonable and the food is so tasty. The cannoli's weren't too sweet at all, and they were the perfect amount. The sandwiches were all good, especially since we requested to have them toasted, and the tart was crispy on the outside and warm and gooey on the inside. The salad was also yummy, and had a really interesting flavored dressing.

Has one of the best cold cuts in the city. The sandwhich has a little kick with the spicy, the herb and oily, the cheesy, the multi-layeted meat. The bun holds everything jam packed in perfect proportions.

Bakery goods are not bad

Absolutely love this Italian centre! The buns are so good to make sandwiches with! Their baked goodies are to die for! The staff are nice and they keep the place clean.

Get our lunch meat here every week with out fail. Love the selection. Can't go wrong with the Panini from the cooler either.

If you want to find the best pizza in Edmonton, you go to any Italian centre. One of our favourite places and we are never disappointed.
03 June 2023 4:37
What an incredible selection of uniquely Italian items to choose from! Very fortunate to live relatively close to this location and it's a must visit any and every time I need something for an Italian meal.

As with almost all my reviews, it's the staff who make or break the customer service experience. The staff here are simply amazing - very helpful, friendly, informative and funny.

To say I recommend this business (and all their locations) is an understatement. It does however, need to be said! Highly recommended!

If you're looking for great food, great value and great people, this is a place you must check out!

I love this place soo much. The other locations are so far. This is very neighborhood ish! Great staff, produce, everything italian. Then you have the Cafe! Great pastries, foccacia to die for and my favorite the Nutella latte!

An absolutely amazing place to visit and find unique and hard to find items. Whenever I am in need of products for Nordic dishes, I always look here first. I have found it impossible to find frozen red currants anywhere in the city, but they carry this item and at a decent price ($10/kg frozen). There are a lot of other great products for sale here and at pretty decent prices. The bakery is also incredible. The eclairs are delicious and the pistachio cake is amazing. I look forward to trying the pizza sometime as it looks and smells amazing. I will happily return again and again.

Delightful pastries and baked goods. Plus they stock British style bacon - hooray! Plenty of favorites from all over Europe not just Italian foods, excellent abd consistent stock of a large selection of European staples you just cant find anywhere else.
14 June 2022 5:55
Loved this place, never knew about it until someone sent me there to pick up a cake. So much culture to soak in, great coffees, excellent bakes and breakfast sandwiches and the grocery section is like candyland for adults. Wonderful place to sit around on the patio on a summer day with a hot cuppa ️
28 January 2022 6:24
Great variety of food products from Europe. Tasty bread, many types of cheese, honey, pasta. Delicious coffee in the coffee shop.
24 January 2022 21:52
I and my family and friends have been shopping here for longer than I can remember.
There is a wide selection of all sorts of traditional European cuisine, imported from all around Europe.
Can't go without mention the deli, where they have wide selections of meat, cheeses, and olives. Personally, I like to pig out on the nocellara olives they sell there, absolutely delicious.
There's a connected cafe too, that is also very good.
09 January 2022 14:28
This busy Cafe is an Edmonton hot-spot for Italian style coffee and desserts. There are at least 3 locations. All locations are attached to a grocery store. You can buy everything you need for a good pizza or a big batch of spaghetti sauce.
01 January 2022 4:05
One of the great food shopping experiences in Edmonton. A rich variety of high quality foods at very good prices.
30 December 2021 12:11
For selection, it is always excellent. For customer service and the experience, generally mediocre as they are often rude and currently the number of customers without masks are ridiculous.
26 December 2021 17:01
Always go here for proper pasta and deli meats. Its clean, well organized, with friendly staff. Their baked goods are all awesome especially the fresh bread.
24 December 2021 16:27
I love the Italian shop.great deli, good food it's always a challenge to keep myself in check and not go home with more things than I need
05 December 2021 6:15
Love this place, best deli I've ever seen and lots of locally grown produce. Really helpful staff if you need anything as well.
29 November 2021 8:15
I loved the place. It was pretty busy for a Sunday afternoon, joyful place with delicious pastry and good/friendly staff. Lots of variety in their products. The service was fast enough, didn't wait for too long. I ordered 2 espressos, slice of carrot cake, blueberry cake and forgot about the 3rd one. They gave us a slice of caramel cake instead of carrot cake, we had to come back and get our order right which they did quickly and the problem was solved. Thank you for that!
25 November 2021 12:05
My brother suggested we meet here for coffee…I’m so glad he did. This is going to be one of my regular stops from now on! I could’ve spent hours looking at all the cheese and pasta and fruit and vegetables and…
25 November 2021 3:21
I used to love this place until they discriminated against me and demanded to see proof of vaccination. They have no right to my medical history or my dollars. I will never be back here again. Shame.
12 October 2021 9:19
Friendly Staff serving high quality desserts, including cheese cake, specially cookies, and danishes! A culinary delight awaits you with reasonable prices for such high quality treats! The also make fresh pizza, and I'll try that next!
11 October 2021 22:39
Wonderful food, huge selection, lovely staff. Plenty of places to sit, inside and out, by large windows. Always a great place to have a coffee and a snack, you will feel transported from everyday life to a mini vacation.
29 September 2021 9:11
I apologize put the wrong review. The Italian shop makes the best pre-made sandwiches EVER. They're located in a fridge/cooler in the back left side of the deli
06 September 2021 13:08
If you are looking for selection this is the place. Being Canadian born of European descent I am able to find many of the flavors that my mother introduced me to. Especially if you need ingredients to make borscht. Also lots of different things to tryfrom their extensive deli and cheese department. Go there and check out things you may never have tried before. Great help in in selecting items so I could create a chacuterie board
04 September 2021 0:18
Love this store, always a must when we are in Edmonton, the Best bakery and Greatest Deli in Edmonton! And the Best selection of pastas, sauces etc.
26 August 2021 23:06
I love the Italian Centre, such a great variety of items and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Last time we were in we learned all about olive oils from a staff member:)
10 August 2021 15:30
Always good at the Italian Centre ship. A bit sad to see it's gotten a bit more commercialized but I guess thats the sign of the times.
07 August 2021 9:29
Wonderful pricing for the quality of food you get:) don't have any pictures because I ate my food too fast x) I 100% recommend going here.
03 August 2021 4:17
There's only one market that carries all the hard to find European stuff and that's ICS! I first tried a prosciutto sandwich 26 years ago from here and have never forgotten about it. If you know you know, if not, do yourself a favor and shop. You will be happily surprised. Fresh baked good daily, fresh produce, amazing meats and olives.
29 July 2021 9:27
I purchased deli meat from Superstore at $56.75 per kg. The same deli meat from the Italian Centre, $22.36 per kg. I purchased a full kg. The deli counter is amazing and they have so much to offer. Make sure to check out the Cave Aged Gruyere cheese. So good!
27 July 2021 7:04
Nice atmosphere and good food and drinks. After you're shopping you can just walk over. Love the cappuccino, zero burned or bitterness to it!
15 July 2021 10:30
@italiancentreshop⁣ #italiancentreyeg

My go to deli and community shopping experience in the heart of the city on 108 Ave and 95 Street. ⁣

A customer service experience I shall never take for granted. ⁣

Each and every staff member always acknowledges you from the moment you step foot in the shop.

Whether on very busy days or slow times, they take the time to acknowledge your presence.

The deli and cheese selection is incomparable, not to mention that everything is labelled…I appreciate this so much! ⁣

Highly recommend!
28 June 2021 11:44
Best grocery shopping experience in Eddy, period! Authentic, friendly and well stocked imported items. Bene!
27 June 2021 16:52
My place for deli. If you like cold meats and are very particular in cheeses, you will find the one you are looking for here!
25 June 2021 16:17
The coffee was fantastic, my wife and I both loved it (and she doesn't normally like coffee)

The donuts and other baked goods were fresh and delicious. The staff was friendly and helpful. Cooking, services and coffee that nonna would 100% approve of!
17 May 2021 7:36
Been a long time since i have visited this store it was fantastic. Love the variety of products. Staff was very nice and helpful?
11 May 2021 11:16
This place has some great products that you can only get here. You definitely get that Italian grocery store feel. The bakery has some amazing deserts and the fresh meats at the deli always good. You can buy some super good spaghetti sauces and meatballs and cheese. But, the hot Panini sandwich is probably one of Edmonton's most notable sandwiches, if you've come here and had one you will always want to come back for another. Friends who have tried the sandwiches from out of town always ask about them. I really like coming here just for that alone.
20 April 2021 2:46
Best place to get some hard to find European delicacies. Lots of choices for deli meat, and don't get me started on the selection of olives. They also have fresh baked bread and a café where you can order pizzas and get some pastries.
12 April 2021 4:33
I’m beyond done with Spinellis. They aren’t what the use to be back in the day. Prices increased dramatically and quality decreased dramatically. Deli staff not trained properly, they don’t understand meat thickness, or how to wrap the meat properly, or when to throw out the ends. Why would I want the end slices of meat? I’ve spoken to the manager many times but no one cares. That’s okay, I’ll take my business elsewhere and support other small European businesses instead that aren’t greedy like Spinellis has turned.
06 April 2021 13:00
Petite neighbourhood market for Italian pantry items, cookware, charcuterie & grab-and-go eats! They have a great selection of speciality Italian goods, excellent service, In and out if you know what you want.
02 March 2021 15:48
Love this place! Everything I buy is superb quality and the olive selection and Italian style pizza are from another planet! The one that king I don’t like is that I seem to gain 20 lbs shortly after bringing my groceries home. Go figure?
11 December 2020 11:30
A bit slow. Need to improve communications when sitting at a table and your order comes up. Still an unacceptable number of people not wearing their masks.
07 December 2020 0:26
I used to shop here often until I discovered this businesses associations. I'm Italian but they are mafioso greaseballs.
02 December 2020 7:09
Just a great place to find almost anything from Europe and a friendly family atmosphere not to mention a great coffee shop to sit and relax
29 November 2020 17:53
I come here a lot and always love the food but the service has consistently been a mess. Rather than taking your order at once you gotta tell like 3 different people what you want, repeating yourself several times and stuff is frequently missed. Please please please get a better system in place for placing your orders. Get one person to write an order ticket and be done with it.
11 November 2020 21:44
Dropped in for a caffe latte. It was perfect. Enjoyed it on the patio. Staff were patient and helpful.
04 November 2020 22:11
The coffee is the greatest; especially the latte with some soy and an extra shot of expresso! You'll be licking your All the foodstuffs: pennines are scrumptious the Margherita pizza is finger-licking great! There's more.

The service is next to none - thee best - hands down!
22 June 2019 18:23
So happy that the Willow Park store was opened. After moving from Edmonton to Calgary, what I missed most was Spinelli’s.
21 June 2019 6:07
I love shopping here, after groceries we stopped in to the cafe side for drunken cappuccinos with our tiramisu, sooo delicious!
14 June 2019 16:49
Prices that are equal to or better than Superstore, as much local produce as they can find, and almost always great quality. Best deli in the city as well. Heavy focus on local goods, without marking up prices. I always start my shopping at the Ital Centre before moving on to the big box stores for whatever I wasn't able to find. And some of the friendliest, happiest staff in the city, hands down.
14 June 2019 6:38
Great local shop. Prices and quality are unmatched by large stores. Also a great selection of sauces and other items you won't find anywhere else.
28 May 2019 11:20
The shop is amazing and truely a great experience my only reason for not giving it 5 stars is it was alittle cramped and it made it hard to maneuver the isles.otherwise you really should visit this store
26 May 2019 15:53
Great selection of meat, cheese and olives at the deli counter. Not sure what to buy? They will give you a sample to taste before you buy. Fantastic fresh baked breads. Best selection of pastas, olive oils and balsamic vinegars.
24 May 2019 19:26
Always love the service and staff here, good prices good food great staff! Always come here for my deli meats such an amazing selection of meats and cheeses.
22 May 2019 22:11
The best place in Edmonton! Grab your coffee; try the sweets; buy your bread and get your favorite cheese. This is a wonderful place to hang out with your family and friends.
22 May 2019 13:28
Great shop. Lots of variety there. As expected lot of Italian and Italians. Friendly helpful staff. Will definitely go back to this shop.
18 May 2019 14:57
The Italian Centre Shop surprisingly has many gluten free items like pastas, wraps and snacks. They also carry a lot of products if you follow a plant based diet. A great selection of beans and produce. Plus everything is quite affordable compared to other specialty shops.
18 May 2019 7:36
Great place if you need something from Europeans, like food and drink, you will find there. I always going there to buy a food from Balkan.
12 May 2019 21:02
Nice set up, great coffee and desserts. Usually the dining area is packed so I would recommend to plan ahead
19 April 2019 16:38
The Italian centre shop is like stepping back in time in a good way. It's a local shop for the neighborhood and you will see ladies visiting, the men will go have coffee in the coffee shop (have a sandwich and dessert here). The deli is one of the best, the section of cheese, meat and olives is amazing. I shop here for fresh bread and great prices for produce, which is quite often local. I go out of my way to come here. It's a gem in Edmonton.
18 April 2019 2:25
Always find the people (customers) interesting. It's a small store but always busy, well stocked. The sandwiches and olives are a must.
13 April 2019 8:10
I love this store and the wide variety of products they offer. Extensive meat and cheese deli, many Italian products, as well as products from around Europe. Wonderful place to find unique foods and gifts.
11 April 2019 18:10
I am not going to stop shopping here, but i do want to let you know that i’m pretty disappointed with an experience i had on sunday afternoon (march 31st.) i am an alternative looking person, and two of your staff members (one being a young boy) made rude comments about my appearance loud enough for me to hear. That isn’t acceptable and I hope that you’ll let them know, even though they should already know better. All walks of life shop at your store and some might not come back after hearing something like that.
05 February 2019 3:50
Tried my first ever egg nog latte the other day at this place. It was pretty unique but enjoyable. Very busy cafe as well a lot of foot traffic happening in the grocery area. But excellent stop for a fresh Italian pastry and hot beverage of your choice!
02 February 2019 23:27
So much a real euro deli and the service is always fast and efficient. The place is obviously managed well and has good standards for being cleaned and organized. The pastry is always consistent. I am happy to report that the West end store is as good.
